Morning! :)

 

Figured it'd be rude to not post in here and say hello properly!

 

I've always been into modifiying cars (sensibly and tastefully, I like to think at least) despite being 25 I've already been through several cars, although my only VAG experience so far was with a Seat Leon Cupra R. It was the most horrific ownership I've had to date and I promised myself I would never return to the VAG group after I sold it! So, here I am, back with my tail between my legs expecting to pick up an Octavia VRS this weekend.

 

My most recent car was a BMW E46 M3, which I absolutely loved but due to excessive repair and maintenance costs I had to let it go. With the money gained I decided to go full blown into something I had wanted to do for years, automotive (mainly drift-related) photography. You can find my work here: https://www.facebook.com/EyedeaMedia/

 

The photography is a good way of still being able to enjoy what I do most without having the pain and annoyances caused by ridiculous repair costs etc.

 

I'm hoping that my new Octavia VRS will serve me well in getting me around the country to events and giving me a nice big grin in the process.

 

Looks like a great forum here, and I look forward to being part of it! :)

Welcome :)

Cheers mate, where abouts are you located? Was just having a flick through your build threads and they absolutely awesome haha. I'd love to be able to do a shoot on one of those! ;)

T'is a shame, no vRS for me anymore, 'cos I've now bought grown-up Skoda, but I do get to borrow SWMBO's  vRS Octy if I need a fix..........
